Custom theme navigation
|
|
|
| I have been tasked with adding a drop menu for one of the top navigation nodes. The drop down list is not an issue. I am having trouble with reading the children from that node. I can hard code these but do not want to have to reboot my servers every t
ime I add or change or remove a department. Can anyone out there help me with this please. I am on portal 6.0.1.1. Not sure that it makes a difference but I have a cell that has 2 portal nodes clustered. Thanks.

Thanks for the response. I tried to go to that url but I get an error about Requested uid value cannot be empty.

| I just took a look at the model SPI in the info center and will give it a try. Thanks for the information.

| I appreciate all your help. But, I am still having issues. I keep getting errors that talk about symbols. What I have done is try to take the code that you have in Appendix C and place in my topNav.jspf but when I restart my portal I get a symbol error
. I try to move stuff around a little differently but still get the same thing. So I am kind of stuck at this point.

| Ok - think I have figured out what was happening with the symbol error message. My import of the jar class' was too specific. Thanks for the help.
